Zero Trust and Identity Access Management in Support of Service-Based Urban Air Mobility Applications

Urban Air Mobility environments will contain of a collection of service-based services, which will be typically hosted within cloud infrastructures. The underlying data for these UAM services will need to be secured. One approach to securing these UAM services would be to leverage the Zero Trust framework, that focuses on securing services and associated data, instead of securing the network. An early step in moving towards a Zero Trust framework is to standardize identity access manage support for an ever-widening set of services, where users must explicitly be granted access to each service.
